Today was just not a good day. I have been out of work since June 12th with a back injury that is just not healing. I have waited a week for the next test to be scheduled (an EMG, anyone ever had one?) and they can't see me until Sept 4. My boss is angry that I have been out so long and I am worried about my job.

I spent most of yesterday in the ED with my husband...he has a neck/back injury from his work (he is paramedic) and he is out for a couple of weeks and in tons of pain.

I just got a new kitten (she is about 6 weeks old...was abandoned, weighs 12 oz. and is SO cute) but she has a butt problem (appropriate for me I guess) but her poor little bum is literally out instead of in...almost looks like a prolapsed rectum. I have two other cats, one is not eating and the other is sneezing and vomitting. These are my babies (I have had them two older ones longer than I have had my husband!)and it breaks my heart to see them not well.

An to top it off, the dog I grew up with (she lived with my parents) had to be put down today because she was so ill she couldn't even stand to pee, my mom had to hold her up and carry her in and out of the house. I am heartbroken at losing her, and I can't take much more of any of this!!

Thanks for listening/reading and letting me vent. I hate these kind of days.
